Who's going to the Pro Bowl?

Not that I've ever really got much out of the Pro Bowl, nor do I really care who goes, it's interesting to see who we think has a shot. I got this idea from another forum where they are talking about Chargers and their chances.

Again, I know I'm jumping the gun a bit seeing as the season hasn't even started, but here we go...

My votes to have a shot at this years PB are:
Tomlinson
Rivers
Gates (NO love on the other board. Not sure why no one was picking him!)
McNeill
J. Williams
Merriman
Phillips
Jammer (might be a stretch, we'll see a few weeks into the season)
Osgood (on special teams)

On the bubble:
Jackson (not sure if this is the year - last nights catch was something amazing though)
Castillo
Cromartie (we'll see what Cro shows up this year)
Vaughn Martin (I highly doubt a PB selection is coming this season, but I have to show some love to the UWO alum! Maybe a vote to the All Rookie Team is a little more realistic.)

With it being played the week before the Super Bowl I wouldn't go looking for either SB teams players to touch the field.

Very good point. Never really thought of that. As I said in my first post, I've never really been a fan of the professional touch football that is the Pro Bowl. I like seeing lots of Chargers dominating their positions, but other than that I see little point in the game.

I just thought forecasting the season upcoming would be something to talk about.

I can remember the year after the superbowl whoopin' Bobby Ross was talking to a reporter about guys walking around the locker room talking about going to the pro bowl and he was like WTF? Pro bowl? I'm talking about going back to the Superbowl!

moving the time and location is a huge mistake. Hawaii was the bigest draw to the players and having the game AFTER the season always made sense. It never got much attention anyway, this will just further its obsolesence...

QFT. Who the hell would take a chance in playing in the Miss NFL contest when you are in the running for King of the World? :lol:

Not just a question of chance, a big one though. The SB guys are hip deep in prep for the superbowl in the week before. This Pro Bowl stuff the week before is lame attempt to keep people tuned into the repetitive hype. It's all about eyeballs on ads. My picks:
